I don't know a lot about this stuff but it does interest me. I have been following for a while and have couple questions..

1- so are you guys looking for an x-class here? let's say we were to have one..what would the implications be?

2- it seems that x-class flares are not too uncommon so what is the hype?

Hang out here for a couple of weeks. You'll pick up real quick on what is all hype and what needs to be watched. The daily crew posting here is way ahead of the curve. Nasa wishes they had these guys. I think they actually lurk here to find out what is going on.
